wtf! I was just in the middle of printing stuff off from ELM, and I clicked to go to another part of my course website, and suddenly ELM doesnt even work anymore! I went back to check my courses, and they were no longer there. I went to log out and then back in, and now I don't even have an account apperently?!?!?!

Moodle > ELM/WebCT

Thankfully it looks like most of my courses this term will be on Moodle.

I spoke to my prof today regarding the elm page and he said that the developers emailed all the professors this evening and said there were server issues that they will try to resolve next week.... rolls eyes.

They should have kept webCT and changed mugsi and solar.
At the moment I can't access anything because ELM and Learnlink dont work. Great.

Learnlink is actually up, but only certain faculties can access it anymore. Life Sci is not. Unless you take one of the supported courses, they will create a username for you.
